There are 92 members in the Google Classroom. Typically about 20-25 show up for activities. I’ve had them RSVP for them because I need a ballpark idea of how much of whatever I need. I always get some extra because, well, high schoolers. . . and there always are others who just roll in without having responded.
We had a bake sale that started this morning before school and then I just sold throughout the day in my classes, in the hall when classes were changing, and on my hall duty. We made $297 which shocked the hell out of the person in charge of the sports/club accounts. We now have over $1000 in the account. I don’t even know what to do with that. We are doing a cookie swap for the last meeting of the year. That won’t cost the club anything in terms of supplies other than paper plates and aluminum foil.
I want to get back in the kitchen in January. I’m thinking of making homemade marshmallows, having them set overnight, and then serving them with hot chocolate the next morning. We have a “share bin” in the cafeterias. The law involving school lunch is that students have to take a fruit and/or vegetable. Students who don’t want them are encouraged to put them into the bin for others to take rather than throwing them away. The extras go to the life skills class but she can’t use everything so they offered to share with the club. I’m trying to come up with something doable with apples, carrots, oranges, etc.
